My future or my past?

I have been waffling back and forth over the past year trying to decide what avenue to take in continuing my education.

Route A would be to enroll in an atriculation process to convert my two-year science degree into a four year BS. This would beneficial to my current job and open the door to other possibilities in the lab. However, after almost 23 years being a slave to the lab, I have grown weary.

Route B would be to take a two-year course in Interactive Media-fun, interesting things such as website building, digital photography, audio and video editing. My manager was kinda enthusiastic about the potential this could have for our growing department. Imagine me, making non-slash training vids. I know this is not a "set-in-stone you will have a job using these skills" type of comment, but it was encouraging. We also have several marketing departments in The Hospital where these skills could come in use.

So, I am gonna stop thinking with my head and think about what I really love to do: playing with media. Maybe it's not to late to teach this old dog a few new tricks.

What do you think?

In other news, I am having a sinus CT this afternoon to try and find the cause of a persistent sinus infection that hads lasted, oh about a year. Think non-claustrophobic thoughts please!

Oh, I like plan B, too. Something fresh and new that you already sound as if you'd like to do. And, as a member of the elders, I can assure you that it's very important to be happy with what you're planning or doing. We're old enough to do what we damned well please and not feel guilty about it. :)

Looks like I'm too late for the non-claustrophic thoughts, so I'll send along wishes for a clear scan.
